Abstract

Ein Cockpitquerträger (1) in einem Kraftfahrzeug ist im Vorbau auf Höhe einer Instrumententafel in Fahrzeugquerrichtung ausgerichtet und mit je einem Ende (2,3) an gegenüberliegenden Aufbauteilen (4,5) des Kraftfahrzeuges festgelegt, wobei der Cockpitquerträger (1) einen rohrartigen Grundträger (6) umfaßt, an dem wenigstens ein Halteelement (7,8,9) zur Anbringung von Fahrzeugfunktionselementen und seitliche Befestigungskonsolen (10) angebracht sind.A cockpit cross member (1) in a motor vehicle is at the level of a Instrument panel aligned in the transverse direction of the vehicle and with one end (2,3) each opposite body parts (4,5) of the motor vehicle, the Cockpit cross member (1) comprises a tubular base support (6) on which at least one Holding element (7,8,9) for attaching vehicle functional elements and lateral Mounting brackets (10) are attached.

Zur Schaffung eines Cockpitquerträgers (1), der bei einfachem Aufbau für mehrere unterschiedliche Fahrzeuge einer Fahrzeugfamilie einsetzbar ist und mit dem ferner große Toleranzen ausgleichbar sind, ist vorgesehen, daß auf einen Grundträger (6) definierter Länge ein oder mehrere Halteelemente (7,8,9) und die beiden seitlichen Befestigungskonsolen (10) aufschiebbar und in der vorgesehenen Position mittels Klemmbefestigungen (12) festlegbar sind, wobei die Halteelemente (7,8,9) und die Befestigungskonsolen (10) den Grundträger (6) bereichsweise nahezu vollständig umschließen.

Figure 00000001
In order to create a cockpit cross member (1) which can be used for several different vehicles of a vehicle family with a simple construction and with which large tolerances can also be compensated, it is provided that one or more holding elements (7, 8, 9) and the two side mounting brackets (10) can be pushed on and fixed in the intended position by means of clamp attachments (12), with the holding elements (7, 8, 9) and the mounting brackets (10) almost completely enclosing the base support (6) in some areas.
